The Pegasus Astro Falcon Rotator is a light-weighted, low profile camera field rotator. Its very easy to operate via ASCOM drivers or by using standalone software which will make your life much easier by allowing you to automatically adjust your exact camera field of view with precision.

M54 threaded / low profile:
Both openings of the rotator are M54 threaded, so it is possible to use even full frame camera sensors without vignetting. The thickness of the rotator is 18mm / 0.7", plus an M54 adapter ring of 1mm thickness, so 19mm backfocus is to be expected: 18mm + 1mm = 19mm. The Rorator also only weighs 700 grams but has a 6kg payload.

Adapters for both sides (included):
Two different adapters are provided:

1. Telescope side: 2" nosepiece to M54 male
   
2. Camera side: M54 male to M48 male adapter

Precise Rotation:
A powerful geared / low backlash stepper motor ensures that the rotator will lock to the designated degrees. Mechanics inside the focuser guarantee zero flex in any point during a full circle rotation.

Rated load:
Falcon Rotator has been tested up to 6kg of imaging equipment but the 6 stainless steel branded bearings can easily handle higher payloads with zero flexure.

ASCOM & INDI support:
Rotator is fully ASCOM6 supported.

Standalone software:
Control the Falcon Rotator from the supplied standalone Windows software is also possible.

Data connectivity:
A USB2 Type B port at the top of the unit accepts the USB cable for PC connection. A 1.8m long USB2 type B cable is supplied in the package.

Power input:
Rotator requires DC 12V to 13.8V in order to drive with precision its stepper motor. It is strongly recommended using Pagasus Astro´s low ripple power supply unit of 12V DC. A 13.8V lead (or calcium/lead) battery is also recommended. Please use a power supply that can provide at least 1A of current.

Note: Under no circumstance exceed DC 18V input as you will cause a severe damage to the internal controller.
